Dirigible is an Integrated Development Environment as a Service (IDEaaS) for dynamic applications. It provides both development tools and runtime environment.
Enjoy Programming Like Never Before
From the end user's perspective (developer), Dirigible runs directly in the browser, therefore does not require any downloads or installations.
From the service provider's perspective (PaaS/SaaS), Dirigible packs all required components in a self-contained software bundle that can be deployed in any Java-based web server, such as Tomcat, Jetty, JBoss.
Dirigible supports access to RDBMS via JDBC. Currently supported versions for RDBMS are HANA 1.x, MaxDB, Sybase ASE (experimental), and PostgreSQL (experimental).
The project started as an internal SAP initiative to address the extension and adaption use-cases related to SOA and Enterprise Services.
You can try a full fledged Dirigible deployment on HANA Cloud Platform. Create your own unlimited free trial account at https://account.hanatrial.ondemand.com/.
You can also try the sandbox instance with restricted functionality that is available at http://trial.dirigible.io.
The "fast-track" - you can download the precompiled binaries produced from the released versions from https://github.com/SAP/dirigible/releases/ and skip the build section.
Nevertheless, we highly recommend building the binaries from source in order to have all experimental features that are not available in the releases.
-
Clone the project repository or download the latest release.
-
Go to the
com.sap.dirigible/com.sap.dirigible.parent
folder. -
Build the project via
mvn clean install
The build should pass successfully. The produced WAR files under sub-folder com.sap.dirigible/com.sap.dirigible.parent/releng
are ready to be deployed. There are separated deployable artifacts (WAR files) depending on the usage type and the technical platform.
Deploy on HANA Cloud Platform with the Cloud SDK.
-
Go to the
neo-java-web-sdk-1.xxx/tools
SDK folder. -
Deploy with command:
neo deploy --account <your_account> --application <application_name> --user <your_user> --host <target_landscape_host> --source <source_directory> --password <your_password>
-
Start with command:
neo start --account <your_account> --application <application_name> --user <your_user> --host <target_landscape_host> --password <your_password> -y
-
Go to https://account.hanatrial.ondemand.com/cockpit at Authorizations section. Add Developer and Operator role to your user which gives you full access to all features.
The Tomcat specific WAR files can be deployed on Tomcat web container. In this case the built-in Derby database is used.
More information about how to deploy on Tomcat can be found here.
-
For simplicity rename the WAR
dirigible-all-tomcat-xxx.war
todirigible.war
. -
Configure Users store:
<tomcat-users> <role rolename="Developer"/> <role rolename="Operator"/> <role rolename="Everyone"/> <user username="dirigible" password="dirigible" roles="Developer,Operator,Everyone"/> </tomcat-users>
-
Open a web browser and go to:
http://localhost:8080/dirigible
-
Login with dirigible/dirigible.
The IDE part can be run directly via Eclipse. This is useful when testing new features during development.
-
Import the project as existing Maven project into your local Eclipse environment.
-
Go to project
com.sap.dirigible/com.sap.dirigible.parent/platform/com.sap.dirigible.platform.target
and open the filecom.sap.dirigible.platform.base.target
using the Target Editor. -
Click on the
Set as Target Platform
link and wait until the required bundles get synchronized. -
Use
dirigible-local.launch
file forRun As
configuration. -
Open a web browser and go to:
http://localhost:8080/dirigible
-
Login to CloudFoundry Platform with:
cf login -a [CloudFoundry Platform Host]
-
Deploy on the CloudFoundry supported Cloud Platform with:
cf push dirigible -p [path to the target directory]/dirigible-all-tomcat-xxx.war -b https://github.com/dirigible-io/java-buildpack
-
Open a web browser and go to:
http://dirigible.[CloudFoundry Platform Host]/
-
Login with user
dirigible
and passworddirigible
which are set by default in the custom buildpack used above.
